Something a little different from the mainstream.
Full on winter here, time to pull some wrenches in the shed.
Bear with me just getting up and running here on these 2 projects.
1983 Honda CR250R and a 1982 Yamaha YZ125 from the era when the modern liquid cooled mx engines got their start.
Both engines are last of the right hand ignitions with a different profile compared to today's left hand ignition stand up position bikesaw.
Enabling both saws to be more compact, more streamlined with oiler, ignition etc. being self contained inside the power head.
Also the ability to cut from both sides of the log without header pipe interference.
I over did it on the carbon fiber and titanium, money could have been spent elsewhere...
